Midnight Scream in Neihu--What is it?

Every night, at about 12 a.m., I hear what sounds like a fire-cracker or a simulated gun-shot followed by what sounds like a woman’s agonized scream. The same shot and the same scream every time. No variations. It’s in Neihu.

Does anybody know what this is?

:shock:

Someone playing an online computer game! :unamused:

One of those customised scooter horns

I’m not sure if this is the right forum, but does anyone know where I can find Magnum condoms. I need the “silencer” version.

har har…but seriously folks. What IS it? I just think it’s so weird and am dying of curiosity.

its someone watching the same porno movies over and over again, with the volume turned up really loud

I assume you are kidding… :smiley: Right? :blush: Wrong forum wrong topic! :shock: HAHA! :wink:

Okay this noise is probably just the mountain crying… EARTHQUAKE A COMMIN!

Okay seriously it’s probably just a bird or a plane or a generator. :unamused: maybe…

my vote is going for those screaming fireworks - you know the screaming banshee. some crackers followed by a banshee.

Do you live near a temple?

It could be a cat or a baby crying also. That happens alot around here…

Let’s all go to Neihu and investigate, maybe we can hear some firecrackers tonight …

This makes sense. I’ve never heard of banshee fireworks before. There’s a small, non-descript temple on my street and possibly some bigger ones in the neighborhood. Is it some religious ritual to set off a banshee firecracker at midnight? Remember, these are the same sounds at the same time every night that carry up from the street below. It’s not computer games, or a baby or cat crying. It’s just the exact same, one scream every time.

Well being it is happening at the same time every night you could go investigate yourself, 12am isn’t that late to be out…

Sounds like it could indeed be fireworks, maybe you can go stand near there around midnight…

It’s the cry of the Banshee…from the frequency your neighbourhood seems to be suffering from the plague.

We had a similar thing happen close to us at dusk every day. I would hear this huge roar like someone trying to exorcise a demon…almost every day…

This went on for months…one day I came home early and I saw this guy on a scooter selling fish out the back of it…I’d just got in the apartment and I heard the ‘mystery screamer’, yes it was his way of getting all the obasans in the neighbourhood to know he was in the area, I even saw him let out a roar, very impressive!
